I tried this one out of my crockpot book and DH has been asking for this at least twice per month. He loves it! I use the 93% beef because the less fat the better. The low salt and Lactose free milk are what I use, feel free to use what ever you like. Ingredients:
3 lbs 93% lean ground beef or 3 lbs ground turkey |
1 cup italian seasoned breadcrumbs |
4 eggs |
1/2 cup 2% low-fat milk |
1/4 cup romano cheese, grated |
2 teaspoons salt |
2 teaspoons pepper |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 cups water |
2 cups beef broth, low salt |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can stewed tomatoes, undrained |
1 (12 ounce) can tomato paste |
1 cup carrot, chopped fine |
1 cup onion, chopped |
1/4 cup celery, chopped |
1 tablespoon italian seasoning |
Directions:
1. Combine beef, bread crumbs, eggs, milk, cheese, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. 2. Mix well. 3. Form into 2 inch round balls. 4. Heat oil in skillet over medium high heat until hot. 5. Brown meatballs on all sides. 6. Add remaining ingredients to 5 or 6 quart crock-pot or slow cooker and stir well. 7. Add meatballs to crock-pot and mix gently to coat meatballs. 8. Cover and cook on low 4 to 6 hours or on high 2 to 4 hours. 9. Serve on top of spaghetti or serve just plain with extra cheese sprinkle on top and garlic bread. |
